About us
The APPG brings together parliamentarians from all parties who are keen to support the work of the Ahmadiyya Muslim community.
The community is one of Britain’s oldest established Muslim communities, having been in the UK since 1913. It built London’s first mosque (in Southfields) and in Morden it built the largest mosque in Western Europe. It has more than 130 branches across the UK and is the largest organised Muslim community in the UK.
The group seeks to make all parliamentarians aware of the extensive positive work done by the Ahmadiyya community and speak up on issues of persecution and extremism that Ahmadi Muslims face abroad and in the UK.
